    Bundu would be a great fight as he comes to win, solid chin, high work rate decent power

    No, which is why they paid Maidana off for a year and then Maidana had to write to the WBA to get Khan to finally fight his mandatory.:oops:

    Because Khan doesn't want to fight anyone with power.

    Don't forget that hes 40 and barely fought outside of Italy. What the hell is haymon doin with thurman?? As far as khan Alexander goes...it's a good match up as far as accomplishments and rankings and skill but it's going to be damn near unwatchable.

    He just beat an undefeated prospect who was being lined up to fight for world titles.

    The guy is a legit fighter.
    Its a good fight for Thurman

    Im just trying to point out why the khan vs thurmn fight wasn't made..
    Makes no sense lol. One of them is ducking the other and i reckon i have a good idea who that is.

    If Thurman can only get a fight 3 down on a Amir khan headliner what does it say about him? there's a lot of posters on this site who think he should be next in line to fight FMJ yet he can't even get a headline show in his own country?

    Highly dangerous & would take him out of the mix with mayweather. He wanted a mayweather fight for ages hence it wouldn't be wise taking such a big risk in keith thurman.

    In Khan's eyes:

    Thurman = risk 80 / reward 20
    Alexander = risk 45 / reward 55
    Mayweather = risk 10 / reward 90

    But why is it only them two who could be ducking when about 5 or 6 have been calling each other out and khan got a better opponent than thurman if reports are right

    Im just pointing out these two because they have been involved in what you have just stated but are fighting on the same card but with different opponents? :lol:
